We'll be passing 2 very beautiful castles, lots of old ruins, some fountains and a really pretty bridge. (.... And probably a lot more just waiting to be discovered.) All of it surrounded by water, making it easy to take a dip. 💦 There are lots of places to swim and have picnics on the way. Our end distination is Schloss Cecilienhof. Right next to that there is the Meierei, where they brew their own beer. Cheers to a perfect day! 🍺 🥂 🎈🍻 The hike takes a round 2-3 hours, not including the swimming and chilling part. On the way there are bus stops if you are wanting to cut it short ✂️ 🤔 Please keep the picnics plant-based 🌱 Please be on time - our bus should depart at 10:50.
